PABLES. The public is reminded that there is no such thing as Parcel Post to Europe, de. Much trouble and disap- pozitmeut are caused by persistent attempts to send small valuable trifles through the Tost. Fans, Curies, Articles of Dreas, Mancy Work, and similar prosents are con tinually being refused, the senders having often spent more in Postage than would have paid the freight by steamer. No refund can be mate on such parcels of the Taluo of Stampa obliterated before the nature of the contenta was discovered.
